We sought clinical trials published in the last ten years on prosthetized elderly who underwent kinesiotherapeutic protocols to recover functionality after full knee prosthesis. A literature review was performed in the PEDro, PubMed and SciELO databases. Most studies presented effective protocols for elderly patients with total knee prosthesis that consisted of isometric, isotonic, aerobic, and resistance therapeutic exercise programs.
